Dierks Bentley Welcomes Daughter Evalyn Day

Country singer Dierks Bentley and his wife Cassidy are new parents after welcoming daughter Evalyn Day Bentley late Saturday evening in Nashville, Tenn. “Evie,” as her parents will be calling her, weighed in at 7 lbs, 10 oz at birth and arrived just before midnight on October 4th. Dierks said in a statement,

“She is the most beautiful baby you have ever seen. Cass did great, and I’m so happy!”

Dierks, 32, had announced the pregnancy in May, saying “Cass’ eggo is preggo!” The couple said they were unsure if they’d find out the sex of the baby, but if they did, it would be kept private. Last month, Dierks and Cassidy, 33, celebrated with a co-ed baby shower.

The name is gorgeous!! Who cares how you pronounce the name specifically. Its not like you will be seeing the kid anytime soon and need to make sure how to say the name as to not offend the parent. Someone is always leaving messages on exactly how to pronounce names, drives me crazy. Even easy names people struggle with!! Crickey!!!

Geez….calm down Colby Taylor! I wanted to know the pronunciation b/c it is so pretty, NOT b/c I think I may run into them sometime and need to know how to say it right! Good grief, find something else to complain about.

Obviously you don’t handle criticism well…my spelling is just fine thanks. I think you meant to take a hit at my punctuation. Usually I go all out for papers, but with CBB comments I don’t ensure my punctuation is always correct. Anything else you will like to take a dab at?? I was simply making a comment earlier about the numerous comments on the pronunciation of celebrity baby names. It’s sad and rude. Get over it…

i hate to beat a dead horse, but actually colby, what bethy and mtoo are referring to is “Sound the name aloud if your struggling….” it should be “Sound the name aloud if YOU’RE struggling…. ” just wanted to clear it up for you.

Marla, I think she knows that since she said something about punctuation rather than spelling. Who knows! The name is beautiful, congrats!

Celebrity baby names always give me a lough. I like this name but the spelling needs some attention.
